Can you tell me about the sannyasi who was traveling to Mansarovar as mentioned in the Satcharitra?

πŸ“– Chapter 31

Chapter 31 of the Shri Sai Satcharitra introduces the story of a sannyasi named Vijayananda. He was originally from Madras and was undertaking an enthusiastic journey to Mansarovar. Despite his primary destination, and even having a vow to go to Japan, he heard about the great fame of Sai Baba. This sparked an intense longing for darshan, causing him to alter his path. As the text mentions, he came searching for Shirdi specifically to see the renowned saint, Sai Maharaj. This story illustrates how Baba would draw devotees to His feet from far and wide, as the chapter poetically asks, 'Where is Madras, where is Shirdi; where is Mansarovar's valley; how devotees line up one after another; He draws them to His feet.'
